We use Kiosk Browser Lockdown at our museum to display detailed information about objects. (website with text and images) We have only positive things to say about this app. We contacted the developer because we struggled with poor wifi signal and we hoped the app supported some sort of offline-caching. We learned that we can actually host the website locally and Kiosk Browser Lockdown will render it perfectly. (This is even better and easier than what we had in mind). Perfect app, perfect support!

We tried the demo of the pro version in an A7 2018 and it almost gave us what needed but unfortunately there was no option to completely hide the system bar (even with full screen enabled) or the system buttons (back, home etc). EDIT: After the clarification of the developer, it seems the issue exists with Android. So we increased our rating from 2 stars to 4. But buyers should be informed of the limitations either on the store page or the app itself. Plus the UX is a bit messy, so 4/5 guys.

We use it mostly to lock our devices (Zebra TC devices) and it does the job well. Some tricks to knows and found if you don't goes via provisioning but so far so good. And also launching a set of app authorized. So we don't really use the browser part. UNLESS for the javascript API provided to be able to show technical information, launch app or service, send back data is working perfectly. That's was not in our plan at first, but now, we couldn't do without. The set of settings available are more than enough for our use cases. And a licence mechanism which is not based on subscription is absolutely game changing. So definitely: Worth it.
